Since the pie charts are color coded, an explanation of the color codes, in relation to the breakdown of content should have been provided. That would have added accuracy to your reporting and also increased your word count for GRA and LR considerations. The report has a strong trending statement that would have been further helped had you actually listed what the comparisons were based on within the summary paragraph. Since there are actual figures presented in the chart, you must use the numerical references provided instead of uncertain word descriptors such as "10 times that of..." . This is a formal report, numerical figures are the key to your report accuracy. Proofread your work. You neglected the period at the end of the last paragraph sentence. That left the sentence open ended and the total essay incomplete in presentation. There are grammatical errors in your essay but these do not impede the understanding of the reader so much that it would have a severe adverse effect on your final scoring consideration.

thank you very much!
